Neurologist Nicole Absar, MD is touring the community to spotlight neurocognitive and Alzheimer’s disease services being offered at Martha’s Vineyard Hospital. Her first stop was the Martha’s Vineyard Rotary Club. “Dr. Absar did a great job of covering a complex subject in a limited time period and graciously handled an active Q&A session,” says Tom Rosenthal, VP of the Rotary Club. “Her breakdown of the many ways that people can be affected by neurocognitive disorders beyond memory loss, such as processing vision and spatial orientation, gave me a better understanding of the complexities involved.”
